Proud Edward

Famous quotes containing the words proud and/or edward:

    Though now in her old age, in her young age
    She had been beautiful in that old way
    That’s all but gone; for the proud heart is gone,
    And the fool heart of the counting-house fears all
    But soft beauty and indolent desire.
    William Butler Yeats (1865–1939)

    Some have too much, yet still do crave;
    I little have, and seek no more.
    They are but poor, though much they have,
    And I am rich with little store.
    They poor, I rich; they beg, I give;
    They lack, I leave; they pine, I live.
    —Sir Edward Dyer (c. 1540–1607)
